2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Brochure
The 2006 V8 Vantage arrived as Aston Martin's answer to a crowded segment of compact sports cars, pitched directly against the Porsche 911 and BMW M3. Its 4.3-litre naturally aspirated engine delivered 380 horsepower with a visceral character that appealed to drivers seeking analogue engagement over electronic mediation. The brochure offered the coupé body only that year, with
2008 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Brochure
By 2008, Aston Martin's Japanese market received the revised V8 Vantage with its 4.3-litre naturally aspirated engine producing 380 horsepower. The left-hand-drive configuration and Japan-specific trim packages reflected the marque's growing presence in Asia, where buyers valued its hand-crafted British character alongside contemporary performance figures.
2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage N400 Brochure
As the V8 Vantage lineup matured in 2007, the N400 emerged to challenge the Porsche 911 Turbo's dominance in the sub-£150,000 supercar segment. Its 4.3-litre engine delivered 380 horsepower—enough to reach 190 mph—positioning it as the most potent naturally aspirated option Aston Martin offered that year. Against rivals focused on turbocharging, this was a statement: raw displa
2009 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster Brochure
Beneath the folded soft top sat a naturally aspirated 4.3-litre V8 pushing 426 horsepower—a powerplant that had proven itself across the range but remained rare in open-air form. The transverse weight distribution and aluminium chassis kept it nimble despite the convertible's structural demands. Japan's allocation was tightly controlled, making this roadster a collector's footn
2008 Aston Martin Vantage GT2 Brochure
When Aston Martin introduced the track-focused GT2 variant in 2008, it aimed squarely at drivers who wanted their Vantage to match Porsche's GT2 and Ferrari's Scuderia on circuit. The 600 hp 6.0-litre V12 and aggressive aero package signalled serious intent. Yet the brochure maintained Aston's hallmark: refined British sportiness, not raw aggression.
2009 Aston Martin Vantage GT4 Brochure
The 2009 GT4 paired the familiar 4.3-litre naturally aspirated V8—good for 420 horsepower—with a comprehensively revised suspension geometry and track-focused damping. Against rivals like the Porsche 911 GT2, Aston's answer was lighter, more nimble, and built around a six-speed manual that rewarded precision. The brochure highlighted its circuit-ready credentials without sacrif
2015 Aston Martin Vantage N430 Brochure
The 2015 N430 arrived as a focused mid-cycle refresh of the V12 Vantage, powered by a naturally aspirated 6.0-litre engine good for 430 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque. That powertrain, paired with a six-speed manual gearbox, made it feel lighter and more responsive than the heavier automatic variants circulating in other markets. The sharper aerodynamic package—deeper split
2016 Aston Martin Vantage V8 S Stratstone Brochure
By 2016, the Vantage S occupied a peculiar space—muscular enough to trouble the Porsche 911 Turbo, yet restrained enough to feel like a gentleman's express. That 4.7-litre naturally aspirated V8, pushing 430 horsepower, delivered the kind of linear power delivery that turbocharged rivals simply couldn't match. Stratstone's UK clientele knew exactly what they were buying: uncomp
